Special Announcement

The Mr proudly strutted out of the veggie patch wielding 7 ears of corn.  He turned the golden loot this way, then that way, and proudly proclaimed that it was good enough to blog, then proceeded to try to give me photographic advice*...


Given that the first two corn crops the Mr and I planted both failed due to my somewhat fat and spoilt horse getting into the garden and eating them (twice!), I thought I probably owed him his fifteen minutes of fame...


Go on, leave him a comment.  He responds well to praise, and to be fair, it really is wonderful looking corn :)  I hope it tastes just as good!

Normal blog programming will resume shortly.

* I didn't really listen to any advice so claim photo credit as my own.  I mean really, the guy grew corn, it does not make him an expert on my camera!

    Enjoy it!!

  20. Well done! That looks brilliant. The only corn I ever grew got eaten by earwigs. Which reminds me, I stuck my hand in my back jeans pocket and something wiggled against my fingers. It was an earwig. Euew.
